im voting for Djokovic.
While murray is good (that rally last night was epic!) this is Wimbledon, this is the final, this is the UK media and a UK crowd...

While murray has been to a wimbledon final, he hasn't been there that often. What once before... thing is a few weeks later after that he won olympic gold at the exact same court against the exact same player...

Wimbledon atmosphere and the national pressure just does something to British players at that damn court._________________the table is made from wood. forget what you learnt, the table is made from carbon. forget what you learnt, the table is made from protons. forget what you learnt, the table is made from quarks. forget what you learnt, the table is good for shagging on

Just remember Murray hasn't lost a match on grass since last year's final

not lost since the final that is correct, but he has dropped one match since the grass season started.
Its a good record and from a purely technical point of view I would say murray, but factor in the atmosphere and what the papers & news are going to be like over the next 24h ... its another factor to. right now the usual suspects in british media are going on "its been 77years since a british male has won wimbledon" ... yes thats just what you need going into this match AND if he wins it and I really hope he will, it will be the biggest win of his life_________________the table is made from wood. forget what you learnt, the table is made from carbon. forget what you learnt, the table is made from protons. forget what you learnt, the table is made from quarks. forget what you learnt, the table is good for shagging on

Djokovic, but mainly because I haven't kept up with either since last year. A lot depends on how much Murray has improved, or learned (experience). From a purely technical standpoint, Djokovic seems to have the edge.

Djokovic is probably the first player since Sampras that I wanted to see win, but can't say as I'm a fan. Not too familiar with Murray, though he seems decent enough._________________lolgov. 'cause where we're going, you don't have civil liberties.

since sampras oO impying you wanted to see sampras win.

I like to think Murray will do it. Don't like Djokovic. Boring tennis player with the best defensive skills currently.

You didn't like Federer? I thought he was great

I thought that was also surprising since Djokovic's boring baseline play is contrary to Pete's great all-court tennis. If anything, Federer is the better Sampras because their game is similar._________________There is, a not-born, a not-become, a not-made, a not-compounded.

Federer was quite simply the greatest player ever to pick up a tennis racquet

Djokovic. Murray is too white and British-looking. You've got have a little Moor or Turk or something going on.

He wasn't too white to win the US Open though

Somebody gave Djokovic a special cucumber salad the night before. Isn't this the first decent player from the UK in about a hundred years or something?_________________Deja Moo: the feeling that you've heard this bull before

I didn't find him boring, so that must be the difference. He got into numerous good rallies and tough matches, and his technical ability to execute shots was amazing. His running forehand was beautiful.

Around the time of Sampras' retirement, there wasn't anyone compelling that I can think of, so I mainly just quit paying attention. I could never get interested in either Federer or Nadal, though both are very good. During this years French Open final, I was rooting for Ferrer, but I think that was mainly because I don't like Nadal. I'd like to see Ferrer in some more matches to see if I actually like him :D.

For historical reference, I hated McEnroe and his antics. I thought it was poor sportsmanship. Similarly Andre Agassi. I appreciated Agassi toward the end of his career when he stopped acting like a punk. Also Connors. Ivan Lendl was my favorite player of the era, but he never quite managed to get the hang of playing at the net._________________lolgov. 'cause where we're going, you don't have civil liberties.

ok now its interesting
